PHOENIX â The Phoenix Police Department mistreated an officer who reported a sex assault against a fellow cop and then tried to downplay what happened once the allegation made the news, according to advocates and a leading sexual trauma expert.
The response to Abby Dennisonâs case â both in 2010 when it was reported, and when it was finally investigated in 2020 â raises concerns about the culture inside the department.
